I'm Mr.Magic. I haven't been stunting or posting anythin here for almost a year now so it's not weird that you dont recognize me. I recently picked up stunting again but just after I entered the GTASL2 my stationary computer died. So I had to use a crappy laptop which I couldn't stand stunting on. My stationary was repaired the same day that I was announced forfeited. That's why I missed the Bloodyhook match. I was gonna participate with this: CSM Combo[Failed]. But since I had to put the Draw distance to 0 and on top of that use the draw distance mod to put it down even more, it was impossible for me to complete it.

Anyway here's my stunt:

Welcome back Mr Magic, I havent watched either entry yet but I cant wait to see what we got here.
Sad to hear about the problems you had with your last round, I just watched the clip of the stunt you had been trying and it was great - a tough combo with a difficult runnup to the csm.

EDIT: I just watched both stunts. Both are decent stunts that fit into the category well. Good stuff guys. I'll vote at a later date.

Nice stunt Mr.Magic, I think you got this one in the bag

Wow Mr. Magic...great couple of stunts there. I haven't watched Ghost's...but I've still got my own stuff to do in VC, so I'll probably check it out if I land my stunt any time soon.

Excellent stunts both of you.

Ghost: A nice csm of the above ground tracks. Props for doing the bump off the back of the csm because that would have been a little bit harder than the front (well, even if it wasnt, it looks like it would have been). You got some alright distance off the csm, and managed to get some nice bike movement through the air considering the limited airtime. You also got a landing on a nice high roof (albeit it was that much higher than the tracks). Also a relatively limited runnup due to the curve of the tracks made the bump more impressive also.

Mr Magic: An nice pb off a fence to send you into the underground railroad area. The bump itself was pretty decent. You got some good height and distance off the pb. You got some nice spin/flippage in the airtime, although I cant help but think it might have been nice if it was a little smoother and continuous. The landing was impressive, although not a difficult looking landing, it was a cool looking landing, because I kinda like the idea of landing 'in' something (quite different from the usual 'on' something that people usually go for). Unlike Ghost's you had an almost unlimited runnup, and that coupled with a perfect lazy wheelie I guess made the height and distance a bit easier.

My Vote: Both the stunts had their good aspects and bad aspects, and both were very different. To me its a close call, but I think I am gonna give my vote to Mr Magic. Overall, to me, it seemed like a better stunt, although only just. I really enjoyed the landing, and the big airtime was nice too. Although as I said earlier, the non-smoothness of the airtime was a little bit of a let down. I am not a RADs method expert so I dont know how much 'more' it gave you, but if it were possible it would have been nice to have seen a double flip - if you had it certainly would have been a bit of an easier decision. Ghost's was still quite a good stunt, and props to you Ghost for choosing what was probably a more difficult bump and a much more difficult runnup. Good work both of you and good luck in your future matches.

Mr. Magic:
it was a big-distanced p2b but the run-up was enormous so you shouldn't have had problems with getting the distance(and Torque got it with a freeway). also even though you landed on the ladder going to underground station, that's not the usage i personally wanter to see.

Ghost:
nice air on the ISM and you had to get quite an angle that made the stunt harder

although Ghost's air wasn't as massive as Mr. Magic's i find his stunt more hard-looking and more fitting into the challenge.

My vote: Ghost
